Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by David Evennett (Conservative). It was answered by Baroness Smith of Malvern (Labour) on Thursday, 24 November 2005 on behalf of the Department for Education and Skills.
Setting/Streaming
- Question
- what measures her Department has introduced since 1997 to promote setting and streaming in schools.
- Answer
-
Since 1997, when the Government's first White Paper on schools made clear the presumption that setting should be the norm in secondary schools, we have used our national strategies, the gifted and talented programme, case studies and research evidence to help schools to consider a range of ways to group by ability. That is why there is more setting by ability in secondary schools now than there was in 1997.
